Housing Counseling | Accomack-Northampton Planning District Commission

Created by the Commonwealth of Virginia, the County of Accomack and the County of Northampton and joined by the Town of Chincoteague, the A-NPDC has been the Eastern Shore of Virginia’s regional planning organization since 1970. Tasked with supporting local planning and community development efforts and providing technical assistance on behalf of the Commonwealth, the A-NPDC focuses on issues of regional importance. They also staff the Accomack-Northampton Regional Housing Authority and the Eastern Shore of Virginia Housing Alliance. By far the largest organization housed at the Enterprise Building, the A-NPDC has the most diverse work program. With three organizations, co-located in the Accomac office it is quite common to hear them referred to collectively as the “Housing Office.”
